September 17 and 18, 2009
Got busy yesterday and forgot to write my blog. Let me update what happened yesterday before I describe the good ride of today. Yesterday was an off day that I really enjoyed. After 6 days of biking a change in excerise was welcomed. As most of you know my first love is running. Yesterday I was able to get on the treadmill and simulate a hill workout. Ran for only 40 minutes but had a great workout. Before I ran I started to do weights to strengthen my quads. This I will do slowly. Started with two sets of ten at low weights and will work it up gradually.
Today I wanted to do my long ride for the week, since I will be visiting my daughter in Pennsylvania over the weekend. I have been stuck at 50 miles and my goal was to increase that. Got a real early start at sunrise, around 6:20. I road north to the end of Sandy Hook and than south to Manasquan and then back north to home. It was a 60 mile ride that took 3 hourd and 45 minutes. The best thing is that I did not hurt during the ride and when it was over I really felt good. So good I think I will play 9 holes of golf today. So far so good.
